Chris Garcia Wins TAFF! Chris Garcia has polled the majority of the 174 votes cast in the 2008 Trans Atlantic Fan Fund election. Administrators Suzle Tompkins and Bridget Bradshaw made the announcement. Chris will attend the British National Convention over the Easter weekend in 2008. VFW will have a breakdown of the results when they become available. Vegrants to Hold Special Meeting! At the December 1 meeting of Las Vegrants, most of the 13 attendees expressed the desire to get together between then and the New Year’s Open House. So the informal, invitational group has scheduled a meeting for December 22 at the usual 7:30 PM time. Merric Anderson Breaks Fannish Cherry! The Earth Shakes and the planets wander from their celestial courses! Life *as we know it* will cease to exist! You’ve heard the rumors; now read the incredible facts: Merric Anderson has committed two certified instances of fanac. Las Ve- grants’ lovable sideliner has suddenly decided to Get into the Game. The first thing he did was produce an unofficial commercial for the 2008 Westercon, scheduled for the July 4th weekend in Las Ve- gas under the sponsorship of those amiable California carpetbag- gers, James & Kathryn Daugherty. You can see it at www.cineholics.com Merric and his lovely and talented wife Lubov have also de- cided to sponsor a regional convention in Las Vegas in April, 2009. Called Xanadu, it is still coalescing into a concrete proposition. So far, Merric has declared his intention to make it a weekend-long party, but he is also planning a variety of events including program- ming that focuses on technology. -

They began working in the early 1900s, at the same time as Walt Disney, but while Disney went on to become a household name, the Fleischers are barely remembered. Our film will change this, introducing a wide national audience to a family of brothers – Max, Dave, Lou, Joe, and Charlie – who created Fleischer Studios and a roster of animated characters who reflected the rough and tumble sensibilities of their own Jewish immigrant neighborhood in Brooklyn, New York. “The Fleischer story involves the glory of American Jazz culture, union brawls on Broadway, gangsters, sex, and southern segregation,” says advisor Tom Sito. Advisor Jerry Beck adds, “It is a story of rags to riches – and then back to rags – leaving a legacy of iconic cinema and evergreen entertainment.” BUDGET Outright Request 600,000.00 Cost Sharing 90,000.00 Matching Request 0.00 Total Budget 690,000.00 Total NEH 600,000.00 GRANT ADMINISTRATOR Ms. -
Animal Agency, Undead Capital and Imperial Science in British Burma

This is an Open Access article, distributed under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution licence (http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/), which permits unrestricted re-use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited. doi:10.1017/bjt.2017.6 First published online 24 April 2017 Colonizing elephants: animal agency, undead capital and imperial science in British Burma JONATHAN SAHA* Abstract. Elephants were vital agents of empire. In British Burma their unique abilities made them essential workers in the colony’s booming teak industry. Their labour was integral to the commercial exploitation of the country’s vast forests. They helped to fell the trees, transport the logs and load the timber onto ships. As a result of their utility, capturing and caring for them was of utmost importance to timber firms. Elephants became a peculiar form of capital that required particular expertise. To address this need for knowledge, imperial researchers deepened their scientific understanding of the Asian elephant by studying working elephants in Burma’s jungle camps and timber yards. The resulting knowledge was contingent upon the conscripted and constrained agency of working elephants, and was conditioned by the asymmetrical power relationships of colonial rule. Animal agency Writing in the interwar years about his life working in the timber industry of colonial Burma during the late nineteenth century, John Nisbet recalled how Mounggyi, having been one of the best-natured and tamest elephants he had known, became unmanageable due to a bout of musth. -

Exposing Minstrelsy and Racial Representation Within American Tap Dance Performances of The
UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Masks in Disguise: Exposing Minstrelsy and Racial Representation within American Tap Dance Performances of the Stage, Screen, and Sound Cartoon, 1900-1950 A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Culture and Performance by Brynn Wein Shiovitz 2016 © Copyright by Brynn Wein Shiovitz 2016 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Masks in Disguise: Exposing Minstrelsy and Racial Representation within American Tap Dance Performances of the Stage, Screen, and Sound Cartoon, 1900-1950 by Brynn Wein Shiovitz Doctor of Philosophy in Culture and Performance University of California, Los Angeles, 2016 Professor Susan Leigh Foster, Chair Masks in Disguise: Exposing Minstrelsy and Racial Representation within American Tap Dance Performances of the Stage, Screen, and Sound Cartoon, 1900-1950, looks at the many forms of masking at play in three pivotal, yet untheorized, tap dance performances of the twentieth century in order to expose how minstrelsy operates through various forms of masking. The three performances that I examine are: George M. Cohan’s production of Little Johnny ii Jones (1904), Eleanor Powell’s “Tribute to Bill Robinson” in Honolulu (1939), and Terry- Toons’ cartoon, “The Dancing Shoes” (1949). These performances share an obvious move away from the use of blackface makeup within a minstrel context, and a move towards the masked enjoyment in “black culture” as it contributes to the development of a uniquely American form of entertainment. In bringing these three disparate performances into dialogue I illuminate the many ways in which American entertainment has been built upon an Africanist aesthetic at the same time it has generally disparaged the black body. -
2018 ANNUAL REPORT: a YEAR in REVIEW Looks Like a Professional Athlete on an Obstacle Course Is
LETTER FROM THE PRESIDENT, NANCYJ. KLUGE Dear Reid Park Zoo Supporters, Transformation. That was the word that best described our 2017-2018 fiscal year! After careful exploration and evaluation of the options available, the Zoological Society’s board of directors made the bold decision to offer our community the opportunity to build a world-class Zoo and to address the infrastructure issues that needed to be addressed. In November 2017, our community voted to move forward with the passage of two propositions to amend the City’s charter to allow a sales tax and to fund a Zoo improvement fund with a one-tenth of one percent sales tax. Leading the Way to Innovation. In January 2018, we held the grand opening for the new Animal Health Center at Reid Park Zoo. The grand opening was attended by Mayor Jonathan Rothschild, University of Arizona President Dr. Robert Robbins, and many more important and respected community members. The Animal Health Center paves the way for the upcoming renovations and additions to the Zoo with increased animal holding areas, quarantine areas, and is a world-class learning facility for the veterinarians of tomorrow. The education classroom provides great insights into the world of animal healthcare and the Zoo’s Dr. Zoo program for children has been consistently sold out. Bigger Spaces. Smiling Faces. With the passage of the Zoo Improvement Fund, the Society and the City set out together to update the Zoo’s long-term master plan. The group took the 2014 master plan that had been previously approved and asked the architect who designed that plan to update it with the items promised to voters: a new hippo habitat; a larger habitat for the Zoo’s beautiful and highly endangered tigers; an African safari lodge with opportunities for indoor seating and events; a tree-top adventure play area where children can crawl in tunnels as high as the trees; an interactive feeding experience with the Zoo’s rhinos and tropical birds; and more room with more shade! None of this could be possible without the support of our donors, our members, and our guests. -
